There are races, and then there's 'The Race'!

Annually, in those famous hills of Donegal, an extreme adventure contest takes place over a 250km course and it's simply known as 'The Race'. 

To put the whole thing into perspective - it starts with a half marathon and finishes with a full marathon, with loads of gruelling stages to complete in-between. I'm cramping at the thoughts of it.

On this morning's show, Dermot and Dave caught up with Jeff who recently completed the Herculean task after 10 months of intense training. 

He told the lads about how much he enjoyed the event, even if he was on-the-go for the guts of 18 hours. 

Thankfully he had his mates there to 'support' him (which you'll hear in the audio). 

An unbelievable effort Jeff, and forget about the fella who won it - he can't be human!
